I was recently invited back to Marketing Sherpa's E-mail Summit 2013 after rave reviews the previous year. Looks like they released this video of me to promote this year's event. I recently stumbled across it online and would like to share it with you!

Presentation: "Personal vs. Robotic: How to turn automated email into personal experiences that drive new and repeat sales"

Meet Jermaine Griggs, Chief Automator

Jermaine Griggs founded HearandPlay.com at 17-years old in his grandma's one-bedroom inner city apartment. He had no idea his $70 investment would turn into a multi-million dollar business teaching tens of thousands how to play and enjoy music by ear.

While in college studying Law & Criminology, Jermaine relied heavily on automated follow-up and marketing processes to run his business while he made good on a promise to his family to graduate school. What resulted was a unique automation strategy and philosophy that he follows religiously til' this day.

As a result of his success and uncanny ability to mesmerize audiences, Jermaine started attracting the attention of the business world. He's been featured on Msn, Yahoo, Kiplinger, D&B, Aetna's Innovators, Msnbc, and more. In 2011, he was awarded Infusionsoft's "Ultimate Marketer of the Year" and teaches entrepreneurs how to repeat his success by working smarter and not harder.

Jermaine is married to his high school sweetheart of 17 years, has 3 children, and resides in Orange County, CA.
